There’s always something new to learn ……. and all from just noticing a  a name on a train ……. plus, we have to confess, we all have a silly school boy crush on the everso posh and fragrant Lady Dame Joanna of Lumley! She is just sooooooooooooooooooooooo gorrrrrrrgeous!!!!

Absolutely Fabulous!

Tul Bahadur Pun is a true hero. I wonder why the space in his name on the train is different to that in the article.

That is so very interesting. The allure of the train, just wish this rail strike business was settled!
